My best friend is getting married!! :)

Well tonight my best friend Kaley is officially off the market!!! Jason proposed to Kaley today and I am sooooo super duper excited for them.  I can't wait for the wedding planning to start!  She is going to be a stunning bride!  I can't wait to see how she handles all the decisions that need to be made to plan a wedding.  Just adding a photo on Facebook tonight took 5 tries before she approved the photo to be posted! ;) I won't go into details on how he popped the question because that is her story to tell not mine.  But I will give you these hints: sky diving, a big bling ring, a huge banner, video footage, and lots of photos.  Tomorrow Kaley will be moving to FL but I'm excited she will have to come home a lot for wedding planning! :)

Congratulations Kaley and Jason! We love yall very much!

Catching you up on this pregnancy!



So to catch you up with my pregnancy, I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant.  We found out 2 weeks ago we are having a baby boy.  Corbin Heath Owens is expected to make his debut January 4, 2014.  So far, pregnancy has been great for me!  The only thing I have to complain about is my psoriasis.  Psoriasis is pretty much REALLY DRY skin.  I was taking injections for it but had to come off of them when I found out I was pregnant.  It's been pretty much like having chicken pox for the last 4 months! :/ Not fun at all! BUT on a positive note, I did not have morning sickness.  Just the occasional nausea here and there. I've gained 4 pounds so far and my belly really popped out last week.  I crave hot wings and watermelon most days.  Although everyday I crave a glass of wine, shrimp, and sushi! But of course those are all things I can't have! ;)  Heath has been great catering to me when I really want something and being sympathetic to me when I'm tired, cranky, feeling fat, feeling ugly, and just want to lay around and be lazy! ;) I haven't had any emotional pregnancy breakdowns yet but I'm sure that will come in the near future! haha.  My mom has turned into SUPER mom and won't let me do anything! (I am definitely not complaining!)  She runs errands with me, vacuums, cleans the house, and much more! She still lets me cook and do laundry, which are things I enjoy doing.  The rest she can have! ;)

Here are a few pics to catch you up with my baby bump!









I'll try this out.....


So after seeing my friends' cute blogs about their pregnancies and precious families, I decided to give this thing a try! We'll see how it goes!  (Thanks Beth Parkman and Meagan Fryer.)  I am hoping however to keep this thing up and running with the remainder of my pregnancy and when Corbin gets here.

So just a quick preview of what's happened in our lives in 2013!!
We found out we were pregnant in April! (yes we were trying and no it didn't take long!) ;)
Celebrated our 1 year anniversary at the beach in June!
Moved into our new house in June!
Found out we were having a BABY BOY in July!! Corbin Heath Owens estimated arrival date: 1/4/14
Now it's full speed ahead for this teacher in August! Classroom is ready, teachers go back Tuesday, then August 19th BRING ON THE STUDENTS! :)

I got Heath something to drink in this mug when I found out and he almost dropped it!! :)

Heath made me take 4 tests before he started to believe me! ;)
This is how we announced to Facebook we were pregnant!  It's not offical til it's FB offical! ;)
 Here are a few pics from our Gender Reveal Party that my sister hosted! :)
Our guesses! Mommy thought BOY, Daddy thought GIRL!
The confetti cannon explosion scared Heath! ;)

It's a......BOY! ;)
Right after finding out we are having a boy!!
